Fell asleep for all of five minutes and dreamed I was a cheese maker in ancient Mesopotamia except I was on strike for some reason and I was feeding all of my cheese to my pet antelope.

🎵 You know Dasher and Dancer, and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid, and Donner and Blitzen… but do you recall the most famous reindeer of all? Hint: it’s not the saiga antelope (Saiga tatarica)!
While this antelope won’t be taking Rudolph’s job anytime soon, the saiga just so happens to have its own special nose. Serving as a built-in humidifier and air filter, its nose helps it survive the dry steppes and deserts of central Asia where it lives. The saiga’s impressive nose filters out dust during dry summers and warms the air it breathes during frigid winters!

How come no one ever told me about the White-tailed Gnus?? All this time there’s been a creature with a wildebeest’s head, three separate mohawks, and beautiful little pony’s backside stuck on and I didn’t know about it.
